Laptop Renderer?

[gnomus]

I'm nearly finished ripping my music library - 2-3 days to go at most. I'm turning my mind to what I can do with it. I know that if I create another library - converted to MP3 files - and put it on a portable hard disc, I will be able to have access to it in my car. (I've already tested this.)

This got me thinking that I could take that same 'portable' library with me when I go on holiday. Since I also always take my laptop, I wondered if there was a way of accessing the Library on my laptop via Kinsky and MinimServer, and playing music on the PC. Sound straight through the PC is of course awful, but many hotels have 'Entertainment' systems into which I could plug the laptop and obtain semi-reasonable sound.

On my laptop, however, the only options that Kinsky ever allows me for "Rooms" are my Linn DS and my Sonos box. Is there a Renderer that I can use on my PC. Am I missing something obvious? Yes, I can use Windows Media Player but I would much prefer the Kinsky interface (or similar).
